US Immigration from Portugal

Hi everyone,

I am an American/Portuguese citizen. I lived in the US for 8 years and moved back to Portugal 2 years ago due to family health issues. I am thinking about moving back to the US again soon, however I have a girlfriend who I d like to sponsor to come with me. I understand we have to be married so I can sponsor her and I would rather get married in Portugal first when the time is right. I also have a daughter (who is American/Portuguese).

I m not 100% sure of how the process goes so here are my questions:

- I have to file for Cr1 (I-130 petition) whilst in Portugal? Is this the only petition we have to file?
- what kind of income proof do I have to gather? I am confused about this. I have a job in Portugal (so does she) and even though I don t work in the US I still file for my taxes over there (the way it s supposed to be done). I don t own anything in the US.
Will I need a joint sponsor?
- if I don t make enough money to sponsor her on my own and don t want to use a joint sponsor, would it be a good idea that I move to the US by myself first, get a job and a house and go from there with the petition and affidavit of support?
- if all this goes smoothly and works out the way it s supposed to, will my girlfriend have permission to work immediately?
- can all this be file electronically?

thank you in advance!

Our country does not process immigrant visa so we are currently scheduled for an interview in neighboring Paris. We plan on driving and are wondering what they will ask for as proof of quarantine. The site states the following:

The U.S. Embassy in Paris continues to follow procedures that prioritize the health and safety of our applicants and our employees. As a part of these efforts, any applicants who have traveled outside of France in the prior 10 days will not be admitted for their appointment and will be asked to reschedule for a future date. Additionally, and as a reminder, the U.S. Embassy in Paris only accepts applications from persons who are physically in France and Monaco. Applicants outside of France should make an appointment with the Embassy where they are currently located.

Hi guys.

I am currently in US visiting my husband, I've been here for the past 2 months on my B2 visa. Me and my husband are traveling to my home country this week for the holidays and I was thinking of returning in two weeks time with him. We have been DQ 2 months ago and are currently waiting for our CR1 interview at the Abu Dhabi embassy.

I know that being outside the US for only 2 weeks it is really a short period of time when trying to come back and I would most likely be denied entry again, I would like to hear your thoughts if I should take the chance and come and explain that I am not stupid enough to come and try to overstay my stay and jeopardize my green card application when we waited all this time, spent all those application fees and we're so close to the final step of getting it. I am currently on unpaid leave but I am still employed by a company back in my country of residence where Im due to return to work early next year.

Looking forward to hear your opinions!

Thanks
